Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 cups short-grain rice
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups carnation evaporated milk (regular, 2%, or fat-free)
1 cup frozen peas , defrosted
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped
3 tbsp basil, chopped
1 tbsp mint, chopped

Meanwhile combine stock and Carnation milk in a saucepan. Heat until just simmering.
Add 1 cup stock mixture to rice. Stirring constantly, cook on medium-high heat until all liquid has been absorbed or has evaporated. Continue to add stock mixture 1/2 cup at a time. Stirring constantly, cook until each addition is absorbed before adding next. Cook until rice is tender, about 15-18 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.
